Tumblr has a never ending interest in mythical creatures, and naturally, people are inclined to ask difficult questions. Since centaurs aren't a real thing, people just kind of use their imaginations, general concensus, math and doodles to get to the bottom of things. For another interesting one, here's the time a doctor on twitter asked where you would defibrillate a centaur.

The amount of energy this mad lad possesses is genuinely impressive. The dude radiates excitement, chaos, and looks like he might implode from the sheer anticipation of literally anything happening, at any moment.

It's a simple enough meme, and it fills our hearts with boundless joy. I mean, who knew that R2-D2 "in Italy" could go on to inspire such a hilarious, incomprehensible result. Seriously, whatever that "translation" is 10 times really fast. Therein lies the beauty of it. The force is strong with this meme.

The people at r/forbiddensnacks are committed to finding things that look delicious but are otherwise not food or straight up harmful. It's a world of fungi that look like donuts, landscapes that look like rare steaks and just delectable looking spider eggs. It's stuff that looks like delicious food but isn't.

Those Amazon Echos can get you, man. This couple experienced quite the shocking moment when the husband had unknowingly paired up with the Amazon Echo, while watching a video with Terry Crews in it.

Someone on AskReddit asked for people to share the most insulting compliments that they've ever received. Insulting compliments are a confusing predicament to find yourself in; on the one hand, someone just said something "nice" to you, but on the flip side, the nicety was paired with something else that pointed out how you were less than, in the person's eyes. Like, you're great, but not as good as everyone else in the room.

Just about everyone had some crazy stuff go down in their high school days. Whether it was stupid, scary or just bizarre, these absurd school incidents will live on with us for the rest of our lives. Sometimes it was an act of rebellion that made people lose it.

When the topic of raises came up, this store manager decided to send out a company-wide email forbidding employees from openly discussing their salaries. The problem there is that that violates labor laws, and this genius decided to put their policy into writing. An unfair boss can be the source of drama and justice, like this security guard who go the last laugh or this manager who tried to fire an employee for following the rules.

This guy asked the people of Reddit whether or not he was in the wrong for his song choice at a friend's wedding. It sounds like heavy metal could've been a tough choice for the crowd. People seem to be suggesting that it was a jerk move, with them knowing what the song was about. You be the judge.

Someone on AskReddit asked for people from third world countries to share their biggest culture shock experiences. Things like having clean water out of the tap, or an ambulance that shows up if you call it (regardless of financial status) are things we can momentarily forget aren't guarantees everywhere else. Definitely a list that helps keep things in perspective.
